[comp.windows.x.motif] positioning icons

smithda@buster.cps.msu.edu (J. Daniel Smith) (06/26/91)

Is there some way to specify the position of an icon on the screen?
In certain cases, I want to override Motif's placement policy.

For example, using "xterm", I thought the "#" option specified the
icon geometry.  But in this case, the icon is always at the upper-left
corner of the screen.

I'm running Motif1.? on the DECstation 3100 (Ultrix 4.1) if that makes
any difference.

Please respond via EMAIL, as our site does not (yet) carry this
newsgroup.  For the same reason, I'm sorry if this is on a FAQ list.

Thanks for the help,
   Dan
